For a more opaque finish, wet a beauty sponge and use it to apply the pressed powder to your face in dabbing motion. A beauty sponge will give you a natural finish but also allow you to build up coverage. Whilst most of you here are not as illiterate as I was when it comes to dealing with makeup, the sheer number of brushes, their usage, application techniques, etc, can leave even the best of us a bit dumbfounded. It smoothens out foundation to a perfectly smooth and even finish, and requires only a pea-sized amount of product for even a full coverage look.
